The worst thing that has been happening in the middle of the night is I wake up (usually to pee..) and I cannot go back to sleep. So I lay there thinking about everything you can't do anything about at 2:30 in the morning and finally dose off about 4:30..and then C's alarm goes off at 4:45 and again at 5am. I finally go back to sleep when he leaves at 5:45 and I wake up to get ready for work at 6:45. It's horrible. I am then sooo tired in the afternoon, but no naps for me...and C wonders why I crawl into bed at 9pm! So my jumbled thoughts come at 3am so don't get confused if I don't make sense! How do you have a toddler's bedroom next to a new baby's? I am so worried about the new one crying, me getting to it, having it wake up AM and then C having to try and get to her to calm her and then what if she wants me and I'm trying to feed the baby. Too much stress! I was recently told the age difference will suck for the 1st 6 months and then it's great. I can see that...but it still scares me. So this time being pregnant it's different when friends stop talking to you or making plans...maybe b/c I'm not by myself, I am always busy with AM so I have less of a life already. But any of you who have had kids, did you experience that change? Why do you think it is? Can't hang out and drink anymore? I'm just not sure....
Anyway, I can't believe it's not even Halloween yet and I am already excited for Thanksgiving and Christmas! I guess it's okay though b/c time goes so fast, at least I have some time to be excited beforehand. It will be over again before we know it! I'm excited that AM will be more aware of Christmas this year, it will be so much fun! I got her Christmas dress this last weekend. It's so cute! I have to schedule pictures!
Talk soon-

girl, tell me about the sleeping thing. i even took sleeping pills last night (which i stopped doing years ago.) it makes me feel crazy. i was just staring at the ceiling waiting for who knows what while kyle's snoring away...i'm tired now.
lo - you are already a teriffic mommy...that's not going to go away!!!!
It will be hard... then you will figure it out. Just keep preparing AM during your pregnancy. Does she sleep with music on? Get her used to sleeping with noise, even a white noise machine. Then the baby shouldn't bother her. Livi didn't wake up when Boo cried, but she slept with a CD on repeat.
I had all the same fears that you do. I thought Livi was going to hate me. But, guess what?! She doesn't and she loves her little sister!
I hope you know that some friends still want to hang out even if we're not drinking!!!! I think schedules just get so busy that it's sometimes just harder to find available time for both parties. There is however some friends that just flip'n suck and only care about the drinking and partying friendships! I hope you know I love even when I'm sober!
